Who are we?

YOUnited Youth is a FREE program for youth ages 12-17 who live in Southern AB, specifically in Lethbridge and surrounding areas.

 

As part of the United Church of Canada's First Third Ministry, this program is open to all youth, regardless of membership in the United Church of Canada.

 

This group celebrates diversity, is affirming of 2SLGBT+ identities and is a place of radical and inclusive JOY

(just the way Jesus taught)

Interested in joining us? Click here to fill out our registration form. This form does need to be filled out by a parent or guardian.

VOLUNTEER

Come back soon to access to a volunteer registration form! We need volunteers for all kinds of things--from re-occurring to single day commitments. 

"First Third" Ministry refers to ministry serving people in the first third of their lives (youth!) The regional and national branches of the United Church of Canada have all kinds of ways for youth to be involved. Learn more here.
